    Laying gravel on paving stones

    We have used this technique on a few contracts and found it more time efficient than the traditional monoblock paving. on a small pathway i think it would be reletively easy and cost effective. the templates or stamps can be bought on ebay for about £30-£50 (delivery can be expensive as much...

    Tony, No I'm not paying him. The problem is that he did the instal as a home job, and when he is trying to sort the problem the Sime lines are closed. Yes he is Gas Safe Registered, but is relativley young (early 20's).
